Filmmaker Aditya Chopra is all set to expand Yash Raj Films’ Spy Universe with his 8th film which will have a fresh new cast. According to a Pinkvilla report, Aditya is planning to rope in Alia Bhatt as a female spy.
One of the sources close to the development said, ‘Alia Bhatt is one of the biggest crowd pullers in today’s time and she will be playing a super-agent in the YRF Spy Universe like Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, and Shah Rukh Khan. Aditya Chopra and the team have planned an epic female-led spy film with Alia Bhatt which is expected to push her to the edge.’
The source added that Alia Bhatt will be seen in a never-before-seen avatar in the forthcoming movie.
The source said, ‘Alia’s inclusion to the Spy Universe indicates that Aditya Chopra is leaving no audience segment out of the equation. She will be playing a spy in an out-and-out action entertainer, and this will be a big novelty for the audience base that she appeals to. It’s going to be Alia Bhatt like never before.’
‘Aditya Chopra is very bullish about Alia and has big plans for her character arc in his universe. He is looking to start a franchise within the Spy Universe centered around Alia’s character and he will pull all stops to mount the yet untitled film on a scale that none can imagine,’ the source concluded.
Alia Bhatt is currently gearing up for the release of Karan Johar’s ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’, co-starring Ranveer Singh.
